The Hobbit Hole XXXVI - O! Water cold we may pour at need...

Posted on 05/03/2008 8:48:06 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!

O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.

O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

Unfortunately, when the election is over, we wouldn’t be able to feed the kitty.

Anybody else having trouble with Google this morning? I can get my iGoogle page to load, but everytime I try to navigate to a link (gmail, reader, anything) it freezes up.

After reading that Heather Mallick column the other day, and another one, talking about how some wild-eyed feminists seem ready to slit their wrists, I told SirKit, they were like vampires on which someone had thrown Holy Water!

Morning. I can’t get to regular google either. google.com goes to my igoogle page. Not having trouble elsewhere, but it means I can’t get to my gmail from there.

Colleague had the unsavory task of trying to educate that pig in how to behave in a civilized world.

Sounds like that lesson should have been delivered with a baseball bat upside the head.

We are so truly blessed, and it's a shame too many have forgotten that.

It’s where I have my gmail, my Google reader, RSS feeds from theblogs, news feeds. All on my front page. It’s my home page at the Castle.

I can get to my gmail directly, just not this page or the links there.

igoogle? Is that like a funny pair of glasses or something? :)

Dunno, I’ve only been on google reader, and that’s working fine for me.

The Wicket has been checked in. They should give a call with an update when she’s out of surgery.

Don’t forget to ask for the CD; I got mine but no one at work wanted to see it.
